pyrosimple 2.0.0

No project description provided

pyrosimple

A overhauled Python 3 fork of the pyrocore tools, for working with the rTorrent client.

Installation

pip install pyrosimple

See the documentation for usage. If you've used rtcontrol/rtxmlrpc before, you should feel right at home.

What's the point of this?

The pyrocore tools are great, but being stuck on python 2, along with the complicated install procedure made integrating both the tools and the code into other processes very painful.

Differences from pyrocore

The following lists are not exhaustive, and don't cover many of the internal improvements and refactoring.

• Only supports python 3 and rtorrent 0.9.8+ (0.9.6/0.9.7 should still work just fine, but aren't officially supported)
• Simpler poetry-based build/install system
• Everything in one package (no separate pyrobase)
  • Use external lib for bencode

New features

• Multi-instance support for rtcontrol/rtxmlrpc
• Replaced Tempita with jinja2
• Support for JSON-RPC (only implemented by https://github.com/jesec/rtorrent)
• Actions to move torrent between paths, or torrents between hosts

Legacy branch

If you just want to use the pyrocore tools on python 3 without all the new features, you can use the release-1.X branch (1.3 is the latest release at time of writing). These releases will only receive bug fixes or changes to maintain compatibility with the original pyrocore tools.
